Light-Heavyweight, Greco-Roman (≤90 kilograms), Men

Date	30 July – 1 August 1984 — 12:00-15:00-18:00-20:30 (all days)
Status	Olympic
Location	Anaheim Convention Center, Anaheim, California, USA
Participants	13 from 13 countries
Format	Two groups of competitors. Placement within each group decided by a series of matches with positive points awarded for each result, from 4.0 for victory by fall, to 0.0 for defeat by fall. When three wrestlers remained within a group, they wrestled a round-robin series to determine the top three placements within the group. The winners of each group then wrestled for 1st and 2nd place. Runners-up in each group wrestled for 3rd and 4th place. Third-place finishers within each group wrestled for 5th and 6th place..

The two favorites were Sweden’s Frank Andersson, the 1979 and 1982 World Champion, and Romanian Ilie Matei, who also competed in freestyle in Los Angeles, rare for this era. In round four of Group A Andersson met American Steve Fraser and was upset, 4-1. Prior to this class no American had won a medal in Greco-Roman wrestling but Fraser advanced to the final against Matei in which he won the gold medal on criteria, after they tied 1-1. Matei led most of the match 1-0, but Fraser caught him in a front headlock with only a few seconds remaining to take the title. Andersson did win the bronze medal, defeating West German Uwe Sachs on points, 5-0.
